    1. eShifting or InfiltrationSome families of lower living standards coming in

      Because there is an influx of families with lower living standards, the area is being "transformed into a 'rental' community." There are fumes from the aluminum Corporation and African-American communities surround this area; these two "negatives" knock the grading down, but its industrial vicinity is a positive.

    2. Construction is restricted to single-family brick homes

      By only allowing single-family brick homes to be built, solely families with enough money to buy/build a single-family home can live here. Families with lower incomes who must rent/live in apartments cannot live here.

    3. Low income laborers, railroad employees

      In modern day, this area is still filled with low income individuals; because of the federal gradings and high percentage of African American, low-income laborers that lived in this area in the 1930s, this sector retains "poor" status it had almost a century ago.
